Atheists and Leftists Infiltrated Russia's Schools in the 19th c., Mortally Wounding the Country - a Lesson for America

 

"A century ago, the Russian people did not just wake up to an accidental Atheist takeover. Secular intellectuals had already infiltrated their schools, and when the universities changed, so did the minds and hearts of the people. To avoid a similar catastrophe today, every aspect of education needs to be centered around the Orthodox Christian Faith."

 

One of the first – if not the first – steps that we should take in building an Orthodox culture in any country, is the implementation and growth of Orthodox education. If we lose this battle, we lose the future stability of our parishes. The universities in America (and in many other western nations) are geared against us and have many sophisticated arguments against the Christian worldview.

 

To create Orthodox schools is not only for our children to carry on and battle the world, but for the nation's Orthodox ethos in general. Orthodox education produces both culture and community! Secular education does the same, and so it is crucial for us to enter this battle with vigilance.

 

The Fathers of the Church teach us that falling away from God is as simple as forgetting God. When we are no longer able to carry the momentum of God’s energy and take every thought captive to Christ, we drift. How much drifting does it take to end up in a place that is inescapable? Is it possible that we might one day wake up realizing that we are completely surrounded by a hostile environment that demands either complete submission or withdrawal? Perhaps this has already begun to happen and we Christians are in a state of contemplation, wondering and debating on how to get out of the current social conundrum.

 

It’s not completely clear how this all began happening — how we lost traditional community and culture within America. There are theories of how it has all culminated, everything from serious error in our historical founding to the uncontrollable flux of immigration. But within the many theories is one underlying element of how humanity has always operated as a community, which many of us will agree that we need to correct: Education

 

We live in the most convoluted culture of all history, with radical amounts of information being pitched to us on a daily basis. When we turn on the TV we are being educated. When we read our Facebook feed we are being educated. When we get trained by our company we are being educated. Even when we listen to the radio or Pandora, we are being educated.

 

It is key for an Orthodox Christian in a secular society to shape our lives so as to hear more Orthodox perspectives, and fewer secular/agnostic perspectives. This requires a disciplined and perhaps ‘out-of-the-ordinary’ way of life. We will look at this in the later part of this article.

Israel to hold drill in Jerusalem simulating 'dirty bomb' attack

 

Exercise aims to simulate how country's government and emergency services would respond to a non-conventional terror attack; Defense Ministry says drill is not linked to any specific scenario

 

The Defense Ministry said it will hold a large-scale exercise in Jerusalem on Tuesday which will simulate a terror attack with a radiological device.

 

The drill will take place at the city's Teddy Stadium and in the adjacent Pais Arena complex.

 

The Defense Ministry and Israel Police will lead the exercise, with participants from the military, Fire and Rescue Services, Magen David Adom ambulance service, the Health Ministry, Environmental Protection Ministry and the Jerusalem municipality.

 

The drill aims to simulate how the country's government and emergency services would respond to a non-conventional terror attack with a so-called "dirty bomb", which includes radioactive elements.

 

The Defense Ministry said in a statement that the exercise was “planned in advance and is not linked to any specific scenario.”

 

Numerous security forces and emergency vehicles will be mobilized in the streets of Jerusalem.
